Follow directions carefully! Important! Test First. Before using this product, always make a preliminary patch test to see if you are or have become allergic/sensitive to any ingredient. Simply mix a small amount of the product as described below and apply to about a one-inch square area of your inner arm. After ten minutes, wash the mixture off with cold water. Wait twenty-four hours. If redness, irritation or eruption appears, do not use the product. You may return it to us for a full refund (address on package). If there are no signs of a reaction, use Jolen as directed. Bleaching Directions: Wash area to be bleached with soap and cold water; dry. With a spatula, measure about one-quarter teaspoon powder and place on tray. Clean spatula. Measure about one-half teaspoon creme. Blend powder and creme well. Apply mixture with spatula covering hair completely. Keep mixture on for about ten minutes. Remove with spatula. If hair is not completely bleached, reapply the mixture for another five to ten minutes. For large areas mix approximately one part powder to two parts creme. In the interest of economy, mix enough for one arm, bleach, remove mixture with spatula and place on the other arm. Jolen leaves skin smooth, hair pale and soft. For bleaching brows, follow the same directions. Do not permit mixture to fall into eyes. If product comes into contact with eyes, rinse with cold water immediately. Always close both the jar and vial after using. Store in a cool place.
